Pratikraman: The Key that resolves all Conflicts (Full Version) by Dada Bhagwan (classic novels for teens .txt) 📕

After ‘Gnani’ awakens the Self, the kite string stays in hand!

Pratikraman in ignorant state binds less sins;

After Self-vision, with awareness, it is done in the true form!

Wash and wear clothes daily, write account book daily;

When pratikraman done yearly then; why not wash clothes yearly?

Gnani too, after scolding someone, does pratikraman right away;

This is just natural evidence and here, no one’s fault is at play!

And yet He says ‘is’ to what ‘is’; and ‘isn’t’ to what ‘isn’t’;

How can a true Gnani say to what ‘is’ as what ‘isn’t’?

In the Vision the world is flawless but the speech finds the faults;

Gnani Himself does pratikraman for pain caused by truth!

Fault is seen because of fault in the self; purify your vision there;

Or else, kashays will arise, when you fight for relative truth!

Accepted by plaintiff and defendant, is the speech of Vitarags;

Call it open Saraswati; their ego-less words are accepted by all!

Talk that doesn’t include pure Soul is false, that’s for sure;

Pratikraman for ‘I am Chandu’, a measure of true understanding for sure!

Forcing the medicine on patient, the doctor may appear harsh;

Ailment may get cured or not, do pratikraman for being harsh!

‘Dada’ is doctor of religion; He swings the whip at the ascetics;

Elegance of Gnani’s silence, flows as compassion towards the wrong!

Having missed non-violent speech, Gnani does pratikraman;

Faulty it is in speech, flawless in His vision!

Tirthankars’ speech is always accepted by all totally and completely;

Fourteenth moon is ‘Akram Gnani’, difference in opinion and speech!

Faulty was the perverse vision; ‘Dada’ charged such a speech;

Flawless is today’s vision and yet flows out such a speech!

Guru says, ‘I am untouched’ but is exposed when called a ‘fool’;

He is touched and he reacts, is that religion a gymnast’s pool?

Vows-chants-penance and discipline in practice give worldly rewards;

They are not needed for liberation; there, only pratikraman works!

Ascetics should routinely ask for forgiveness an hour a day;

It’s true religion even if it is done in mind and not in person!

True religions are only two, Pratikraman and absence of kashays;

Rest is not necessary, world hasn’t followed ‘this’ core-religion!

When you follow Gnani’s words, you’ll reach liberation-gate;

Go ahead, Dada is responsible for you, don’t miss at any rate!

Insistence is great atikraman, it has ruined the country;

It has poisoned internally; this hatred must be ousted!

They command in Kramic path, don’t steal, lie, or do wrong;

Scriptures shout to follow non-violence, truth, non-theft!

Scriptures people have put away with frown on their face;

Scriptures don’t bring change in life, why should one attach ‘this’ trouble?

‘I want to do it but can’t’, one should never sing this song;

Say, ‘why not’ firmly and decide repeatedly to perform!

Stealing-lying happened but do pratikraman for that;

Behavior can never change so, understanding you can change!

All the world’s religions are on ‘I am the body’;

Only Akram Vignan is free of ‘I am the body’!

‘I want to give up’ or ‘I can’t give up’, both are states of doership;

Are you able to empty your bowels at will? What is the limit of your ability?

If you want to act with doership, ask for energy for sure;

Dada’s ‘Nine Kalams’ change causes, the effect does not!

You are infinite energy; ‘energy-less’ how can you ever say?

Pratikraman is also the self-effort that is done in illusory state!

Even saints-devotees in the country are unaware in the spiritual song;

They say ‘I did’ to ‘It happens’ and say ‘do what I say’ to the ‘top’!

If you do something wrong, correct it by doing pratikraman;

It’s called illusory self-effort; become a non-doer if you want to be eternal!

You are not the doer of anything; You are only the Knower;

Knower and doer are different, so the action in this life cannot change!

Know the wrong one as wrong; change ‘his’ opinion;

That verily is the religion of true effort; ‘see’ and ‘know’ and make ‘him’ decide!

‘I can’t do, brother, I can’t’; you should never say this;

Soul’s nature is, you become what You envision!

This matter is very subtle, you can’t resolve without understanding;

Only Gnani can differentiate the realm of the Self and the non-Self!

To reform a boy thief, you can’t punish or beat him up;

He’ll form wrong tuber and opinion to steal will strengthen!

Asking for energy from Dada, ‘I won’t steal in this lifetime’;

Dada will give shelter and pure love; his heart will change!

If you’ve stolen, ask for energy; ask for specific energy;

Remedy is change of opinion, absolute humility to God!

‘Gnani’ has all the remedies and his diagnosis is accurate;

‘Dada Bhagwan’ is the scientist; expose to Him your ailments!

Ask for energy and you shall get it one day, don’t doubt;

Hence He gave Nine Kalams filled with secret of Vignan!

In Akram, don’t see conduct, dispose it all with Gnan;

New adverse internal meditation ceases, old ones are ‘seen’ and cleared!

Spirituality means purifying of chit, impure chit binds karma;

Not hurting any embodied Soul, this pure interaction is religion!

No new karma shall bind the mahatmas of this Akram way;

They clear old karmas and follow five Agnas all day!

When facing sticky karmas, dissolve them with pratikraman;

One life to go with this knowledge that guarantees no new karma!

Do pratikraman as soon as atikraman or attack happens;

Valiance here is wonderful! One enjoys the Absolute Self!

‘Kraman’ created prakruti and Atikraman has expanded it;

Pratikraman diminishes it and Akram Gnan has explained it!

Don’t have a single bad feeling for a thief or a prostitute;

They don’t wish to do bad but are trapped in circumstances!

An ignorant person sees others’ faults, his own faults he can never see;

How can he judge when he is the criminal, the lawyer and the judge!

Even the ignorant person does pratikraman up to a certain degree;

Some proficient and vigilant people have repented and released faults!

After becoming pure Soul, is pratikraman worth doing for him?

In Akram, he has to do this because the other person does get hurt!

Despite doing pratikraman if the other person doesn’t forgive;

Have no impact of this, You shall get freedom from faults!

Opponents of Atikraman make their presence known through pratikraman;

Disagree with faults and get freedom from faulty nature!

All faults are to be settled and they are not ‘My’ intents;

Pratikraman isn’t necessary here if one can remain that aware!

All the worldly interactions without atikraman are naturally settled;

Pratikraman for atikraman will dispose both the inner and the outer!

True pratikraman is the one that when done reduces faults;

How can there be liberation if there is no reduction in faults?

Pratikraman cleanses and there is no malice in others then;

No divisive difference of minds and intact are the relations with them!

Mind becomes pure and clean as proof of cleansing of sins;

Happiness is evident on the face, and light as a feather you feel!

‘Chandu, it is your mistake’ when someone says this to you;

Tell Chandu, ‘Chandu, your mistake maybe there’, hence the rebuke’!

The boss should never see the under-hand’s faults;

With police, judge or wife, why does he remain so meek?

Delay in doing pratikraman, do pratikraman for that too;

Mind wanders during Arati or Vidhi, for this inertia too!

To err is human nature, the way to be free from this err;

Only the Gnani shows it, ‘Do pratikraman, O, lucky one’!

Cause of fault is interference of the self; others have no concern;

The one who pays heed, stops the faults and binds no karma!

Akram Gnan manifests pragnya; pratikraman is automatic;

His state is free from abhorrence, like God, who has no egoism!

‘No hurt’ is Lord Mahavir’s word, do pratikraman for ‘hurting’;

You should get resolution or disposal; this life isn’t for fighting!

No such vision of faults is with Kramic path Gnani;

Look at the awareness of the one on Akram path; pratikraman is at every step!

Pratikraman is not needed if good qualities are seen in others;

Good behavior with them is the only inner intent of ours!

Egoism supports self’s faults and takes the side of the self;

Even the great sages are seen wedded to the egoism!

When the prices go up in business and customer is unhappy;

Don’t risk Self-realization; see the doer to be the ‘Vyavasthit’!

How has Dada placed us in Akram state while doing all our karma?

‘Vyavasthit’ controls this life and yet pratikraman frees from karma!

Look at Akram’s ultimate principle, it follows not the intellect;

It answers from all angles and brings the fool on the path!

If the black-marketer of this time understands ‘Vyavasthit’;

Pratikraman is his solution and dissolution of prakruti follows!

If the ignorant one charges interest, he will become a cruel person;

Self-realized one will do pratikraman here and clean this stain!

Doing creditor’s pratikraman, sends him positive effect;

Doing raag-dwesh or fighting binds ‘extra items’!

Faults of getting angry, stealing, dishonesty and immorality;

Scolding and objecting; pratikraman cleans this slate!

When dismissed by the boss, if he stays in pure Soul;

Even a death sentence won’t bind; the judge is simply doing the job!

Due to senseless egoism, one allows a scorpion to bite;

‘Gnani’ will do its’ pratikraman and put it aside!

On seeing someone aversion arises, understand that it is the enmity from the past;

You should do pratikraman for it and get freed from dislike or hatred!

Clashes between husband and wife, and the in-laws are unsettled account;

Do their pratikraman as well; they are the connections of the relative self!

This world is a place to pay off accounts of karma;

‘Akram’ says do pratikraman to be free from karma!

Pratikraman improves relations and additional loss won’t be there;

Echoes from others will arise or else India-Pakistan like war will be there!

When there is insult or loss of faith, cleansing removes the faults;

Cleansing must be done
